[Here, Thor, have an irritated German man:]

The paperwork in this place is an absolute clerical nightmare. The redundancy among the so-called necessary forms is utterly asinine, and the color-coding system is a complete farce. If you ask me the whole thing has been designed to create as much confusion and chaos as possible, because they're doing

[Video. If you notice him...]

[Wow. Wow. Is it Christmas come early?
Canada barely registers Germany's complaints about the paperwork (everyone says the same), but is happy to reply to his roll-call!

... But getting mistaken for America in this case would probably be really bad. Best to try and make it very clear from the start.]

Germany, it's Canada here. Canada...

[mysecrethobby]

[Why is his guide showing him a video of an empty room?]

[He shakes it a bit to see if that will fix things]

[maple_syrup_can]

[Ahhhh, okay, unnoticed is better than mistaken for America. Yep.]

It's Canada...!

[He'll just... patiently wait as long as it takes to be noticed.
(Which is sometimes never. That's okay...)]

[mysecrethobby]

[The shaking does not seem to have helped. Next he'll try thumping it with on the side with his palm.]

[maple_syrup_can]

Ah-! Germany, don't break your Guide! They don't work very well as it is-

[mysecrethobby]

[And now it's making a quiet humming noise like somebody is talking really, really quietly.]

[And it's about this time Germany is struck with an inexplicable urge to use the restroom, so he sets the Guide down and leaves it.]

[maple_syrup_can]

Um...

...

[M-maybe he'll try calling on Germany later...
Canada doesn't want to get in trouble with him for not checking in like he asked...]

[mysecrethobby]

[And he's back a few minutes later; he notices the Guide is still on, and blinks when he actually sees a face now.]

Oh. Canada?

[maple_syrup_can]

[THE RELIEF ON HIS FACE IS SO OBVIOUS- (*sob* you remembered my naaaaammmmmeeee~!)
So glad he was patient. So very glad- And with a reaction like that, he's probably from a modern time...?]

Yes, it's me! Hello, Germany.

[mysecrethobby]

[Jeez Canada, why so emotional 8(]

Hello, Canada. It's good to see you.

[maple_syrup_can]

[[...Just compared to you?]]

It is very good to see you too. I trust that the others have spoken to you by now?

[mysecrethobby]

A few. I have spoken with France, Scotland, Iceland, Japan, and Italy. And I'm told America and England are here as well...?

[maple_syrup_can]

Yes, that's right. Austria is also here, and Prussia has just arrived as well.

[mysecrethobby]

Austria is here as well? France neglected to mention that.

[And that is why he's asking everyone he talks to. 8|]

[maple_syrup_can]

Ah... Well... [Optimistic answer, go!]
France hasn't been here long. Perhaps he hasn't come across Austria yet. I haven't heard from him in a while either...

[mysecrethobby]

You haven't? What has he been up to, do you know?
